OP - I think you have gotten some good ideas on programs from a couple of helpful parents and the usual harangue from the crazies.  In terms of other wholesome activities that you may want to consider for your daughter as she grows up in terms of at least peer and community service, I would also recommend being a volunteer at a Special Olympics sports training in a sport that she enjoys and has some skills in when she is perhaps 10 or so working with younger children if there is ever a need in your area.

In high school, there is a wonderful program called Young Life, which we did not know all that much about when our girls went through high school.  However, in recent years a special monthly program of it called Capernaum for teens and young adults with disabilities was begun in our area of Virginia, and it is just great.  Both programs are based on Christiam values technically, but I know teens of all faiths (including Jewish) attend the special program.  College students mentor typical high school student AND both high school and college students plan and carryout the program for those with special needs.

You are on the right track in finding a positive program with peers for your young daughter.  Ignore what others on a random board spout about.
